Can this use hard drives from WD my book live duo

If you plug your WD MyBook Live Duo via the Synology's USB port, it should show up. If you unmount the Hard Drives inside the WD MyBook Live Duo, which should be a WD Green, you can then put it in the Synology. It will be then formatted. I did it from a WD MyBook.

I don't see why not, it can use any SATA drive. I bought off-the-shelf WD drives for it.

yes you can use a external hard drive with the zmodo systems--you just have to make sure your using one that's compatible with the system.

No the hard drive doesn't work anymore and it's less than a years time. Also wd would not rma the product for me.

I am currently using a 2 TB WD My Book for Mac on OSX 10.9.1. It works flawlessly and am very happy with it. I set it up when I was still using Lion. Then upgraded to Mavericks and had no problem.

Should work fine, Ive been using mine with the WD Black 250 GB Mobile Hard Drive: 2.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA II, 16 MB Cache, 5 Year Warranty - WD2500BEKT for a week or so & its been A-OK.

I'm not sure. According to the WD TV live owner's manual, the WD TV live unit looks at the format of what's on the external hard drive connected via USB.

Hard to say, but I doubt it. The thing requires a driver to run in Windows, and is recognized as two separate drives.

Yes, but keep this in mind : The only external hard drives I ever got to work with this device are Buffalo- branded ones. I tried WD, Ragate, and Maxtor USB 3.0 and 2.0 drives with no luck at all. However, I had Buffalo - branded drives working on two ports at once.

You could use it for that. But, you need a hard drive to install into it. You might as well buy a WD Book, and use it for all three. I just bought a 4TB book to do the same thing. But, it was over $150 bucks. I also have a 3 TB 'wireless' external hard drive (book). I use 2 computers to store info, so that I can use either computer, and not have to re-hook up my book. Can get files, for my laptop, or desktop. I filled up 3 TB pretty fast. It was around $150 also. But, I love it. desktop is 7 and laptop is 8. No problems accessing from either. Spend the bucks. If you can.

From past experiences with WD I stopped using them several years ago. Seagate or Hitachi would be a better choice in my opinion.

Not unless you have the right software to only read the hard drive. This device only turns the Hard Drive into an External Device. It has no options whatsoever.

Yes, you can. Most general external drives should do. I have an LG. HP also makes them.

Yes it does. It will come formatted with FAT32, so you will have to change it to NTFS, but it is possible.

I am sorry I do not know the ans. I suggest that you contact WD for that information.

Yes, however I dont recomend this product, I use Mybook Studio by WD, I had a Seagate and it totally crashed they are too too sensitive.

It appears that WD is replacing the My Book Live Duo product line with My Cloud, and they offer the My Cloud Mirror two bay Raid 0 and 1, which I similar in features to the My Book Live Duo and they now offer in the "Expert Series" a more serious version called the My Cloud EX2, they now both offer free applications to access your NAS anywhere and both are PERSONAL CLOUD storage.....
